Because that will compromise sound isolation and your neighbors will have you evicted.
OK, now I get that drywall isolates better than acoustic foam, perhaps for the same reason it reflects?

I agree with Bryan that wall-ceiling corners are a good place for traps, but plan for a few in wall-wall corners too, and possibly on the rear wall behind you too. With bass trapping, it's best to spread them around the room as evenly as you can.

Thank you. I guess I'll buy some thick bass traps and experiment with them.

The lower half of the room also has a couple inches clearance behind the shelves. Is it worth also getting some of the thinner panels for this? The high frequency part of the spectrum sounds pretty good to me already.
